He added, "Since the launch of Prime Video Ads, this team led the global expansion into 15 countries around the world – most recently The Netherlands and New Zealand. Together we launched and grew Amazon into the global leader in premium streaming TV advertising, led with Upfronts in the US and around the world, built a Brand Partnerships capability to allow marketers to align with our global IP, expanded Live Sports advertising into a global multi-sports offering (incl. our NBA/WNBA debut), relaunched our Local Advertising business with a partner-first approach and turned agency and technology partners into force multipliers for our customers by making Amazon DSP the best solution for them across premium publishers and the open internet.
